A song written for Trinity Sunday 2018 at St James Church, Hill. It's trying to bring a modern take on Trinitarian thought without over-complicating matters, and with language that most of our younger members could access. Inspired by Kingsland Church's song about the Holy Spirit that got all nine gists in the chorus, I tried to do the same in verse three of this song.
I do write slow songs, but the fast ones keep breaking through. This song is based on my favourite chapter of the Bible, Romans 8. There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, and nothing now can separate us from His love.
I love fast songs that have substance, so that was my aim in writing this song. It speaks about the different aspects of Jesus, from creation of the world to dying on a cross, from his unknowableness to his intimate love for us. Works well as a song to wake a congregation :)
This song is almost literally word-for-word from Colossians 1:15-20 (ESV), which is about the supremacy of Christ. I wrote this song as part of the 12 Song Challenge, where the theme for the month was writing songs using word-for-word portions of scripture.
This song was inspired by the Christ Hymn in Colossians 1 and submitted in the 12 Song Challenge for May's 'Songs of the Bible' challenge. Grateful for the feedback that got it to this stage and to Andy Biggs for producing it.
A song based on Acts 4, where Peter says the words "Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved." The whole song is written around salvation being found in Jesus alone.
I started writing it as part of the 12 Song Challenge in 2024, where the theme was "Acts songs", i.e. a song based on a part of the book of Acts.
The recording was created (mostly) live, with only the lead guitar part being recorded separately.
A song to ignite memories of child-like excitement about Christmas and transform them into awe-filled wonder, focusing on the transforming work of Christ that begun with his earthly birth.
